PLEASE GOP (whoever is the nominee), use statements like this in the campaign. Normal people will see this as what it is: doubletalk to explain away persistent, unacceptably high unemployment.

If we go out and break every single window in every public building, just think how prosperous life would be for those who repair windows, manufacture glass, transport the glass, sell glass, etc.

Life would be great! Only idiots like us conservatives seem unable to grasp that concept.

"WH Senior Advisor: Unemployment Stimulates the Economy"

Is this one of those satires I usually fall for?

Isn’t it amazing how over 50% of America will be utterly stunned when the country goes bankrupt and there’s anarchy in the streets? ‘How did this happen’, they’ll ask. Democrats will say the dastardly republicans did it and there will be civil war.

Awesome. All we need for a full recovery is 100% unemployment.

Reminds me of the old joke about the four engine airliner. The pilot comes on the speaker and announces they just lost engine #3 and would therefore be arriving 15 minutes later than planned.

Ten minutes later the pilot comes on the speaker again and announces that they just lost engine #2 and would be arriving 45 minutes later than planned.

15 minutes later the pilot comes on the speaker and announces that engine #1 was lost and they would now be arriving 1 1/2 hours later than planned.

The business traveler in seat 5A leans across the aisle and says to his traveling companion: "Dang, if we lose the 4th engine, we'll be so late, we'll miss the meeting."

Obama did not cancel the Keystone pipeline.

zer0 must be quite proud of cancelling the economic de-stimulative Keystone project. By Cancelling it, he was SAVING the economy - all the 20,000+ folks that would have been employed are now helping us all by being unemployed, and spending their unemployment checks, and stimulating the economy! Yayyyy!

But wait, didn't he try to blame Republicans for cancelling Keystone? Doesn't this mean he shoud be crediting the Republicans for a great economy?

The mind loops and knots.

That is the intent of the Big Lie technique.

When the Broken Window Fallacy has been effectively institutionalized by your government, economic disaster is only a matter of time.

I would dearly love to believe these people are bat-shit crazy. But I do not. What I believe is that they are bat-shit hungry for power.

So it logically follows that the higher the unemployment and the more unemployment checks issued, the better the economy will become. So why not put everyone on unemployment and then the economy will really be great?

Question: Where does the money come from to fund those unemployment checks? Just asking....

I’m sorry for your wife’s job loss but isn’t it great to be part of the 1%?

Laz,

They are far from crazy. Libs are willing to tell any lie, break any law, destroy any people to stay in power

The fools/crazies are the ones who believe them!

Be well

How do you deal with such utter stupidity??
Especially when such stupidity isn’t reported, or ridiculed by the media, but in fact, CHEERED by that same media?
